Senior Litigation Attorney (10+ Years) | Planned Succession Opportunity
We are seeking a seasoned litigation attorney (10+ years) to step into a planned retirement transition at a well-established law firm.
The retiring attorney will be involved in the training and handoff to the new incoming litigation supervisor.
Why This Role Is Different
This is a rare opportunity to:
- Inherit established, recurring client relationships
- Grow strategically rather than rebuild from scratch
- Transition into a leadership role without legacy friction
We are looking for a litigator who sees the next decade as a platform-building phase, not just “another job.”
Practice Focus
The ideal candidate has deep experience in one or more of the following:
- Business & commercial litigation
- Real estate disputes
- Employment defense (single-plaintiff and/or wage & hour)
Portable business is welcome and rewarded but not required. What matters most is credibility, judgment, and the ability to steward long-standing client relationships.
What You’ll Have
- A planned, supported retirement transition
- Clients who already expect—and welcome—you
- Freedom to grow the practice in ways that align with your strengths
- No pressure to replicate someone else’s style or book
- A collaborative firm that values autonomy and professionalism
- Technology forward environment that encourages work life balance
What We’re Looking For
- 10+ years of civil litigation experience
- Strong client-facing presence and strategic thinking
- California bar admission
- Law-firm background (this is not a fit for attorneys maintaining a separate practice)
The Right Fit
This role is ideal for:
- A senior associate or counsel ready for a bigger seat
- A small-firm litigator looking for infrastructure and growth runway
- A trial-tested attorney seeking long-term stability with upside
All inquiries are handled confidentially.
